CARLTON, MN –In an effort to make your home festive for the holidays you may find yourself with a pile of broken or unwanted holiday lights. Well don’t throw your old string lights in the trash – recycle them!  The collection and recycling of holiday lights is offered at the Carlton County Transfer Station located on Highway 210.  The program provides FREE holiday lights recycling and are accepted year-round.  Electric cords are also accepted.  The winter hours for the Carlton County Transfer Station are Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Saturdays from 8:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
